Living with my myocarditis

I was 38 years of age when I took 2 mild heart attacks brought on by myocarditis being my final diagnosis
It was frightening as I couldn’t understand why this was happening to me I’m a fit girl for my age & I look very young I have a family of2 children one of each I was told by my heart doctor most people who suffered myocarditis perished within 48 hrs of being diagnosed I suffered depression and anxiety a lot after my illness it was short lived as I recovered well and didn’t need surgery and had no lasting damage done to my heart all I can say is I’m very lucky t b here..
